title: Computed tomography with stress maneuver to demonstrate sternoclavicular joint dislocation.
abstract: Axial CT is the method of choice for radiographic evaluation of sternoclavicular joint dislocation. A technique for demonstrating the degree of mobility at the sternoclavicular joint during CT examination is described. This method allows for the determination of the true magnitude of hypermobility at the dislocated sternoclavicular joint.
